Lower risk of pregnancy, ovarian cancer, and endometrial cancer. No change in risk of Breast cancer, but higher chance of having breast cancer detected (probably due to more regular exams). Higher risk of heart attack and stroke while taking them but (for younger women and women who don't smoke) not as high as if you'd gotten pregnant and had a baby.
